Participation and Engagement
Participation is having your say regarding the services you are involved or have contact with.
It’s about helping ACCORD make decisions on many aspects of current and future service provision.
We are proud of the services we provide in the Renfrewshire and parts of East Renfrewshire area. Your involvement is so important in order to sustain these services. There are many ways to support ACCORD Hospice and being involved in Participation is one of them.
Can you help? Can you become active in Participation here at ACCORD? Your comments will always be taken on board, and feedback will be provided where possible.
